No, wait - here's their blog URL - http://blog.eyetools.net/eyetools_research/ Dang - don’t have the URL with me, but you (and he) would be interested in the eyetracking website - they track eye movements on webpages for usability, and then make obvservations based on the eyetracking.

The technology at that time was very cumbersome but there were some interesting studies done of reading habits and attention patterns. I haven't kept up with the research for a long time and it would be interesting to hear more about what this professor is learning. It's a fascinating field.
